I have a similar problem in MS Exchange Environment. I use MS Outlook 2003.
Our corporate mailbox has a size limit and in order to maintain this, all
older email are autoarchived to Enterprise Vault. Now, I want to download and
store all my emails to a local pst file. However, I understand that for the
archived emails in my exchange server, only the header/main text info will be
exported to the PST and in order to read any attachments etc I still need to
be online and connected to the server.

How do I un-archive from enterprise vault and store all my old emails to a
PST folder?

Since no one has responed, if your archive points to a local pst file,
usually named archive pst, you simply open this within Outlook -
FileOpenData File.....browse to the archive file -
You can open any msg in the Archive & do with it as you wish, there is no
need to move the msg anywhere, the Archive Folder is just another data file,
named archive, containing archived data

Having just switched from GroupWise to Outlook 2007, I find some of the
features of Outlook to be inferior, or I am missing something.
In GroupWise I could manage the contents of my mailbox, all folders, by
manually Archiving items from the mail system to a folder in my Home
Directory. If I needed to work with a specific, archived item, I would
"Open
my Archive" in GroupWise, Unarchive the item, thus moving it back to my
mailbox, and could then work with it. When I am finished, I could then
re-archive the item if desired.
Is this possible in Outlook (version 2007)?

Thanks

I can't help with Enterprise Vault, since I don't know what it is, but I can
suggest that you should keep your Exchange mailbox as the delivery location
and create a rule that will move anything using the form "Message" to a PST.
That way, only mail will get transferred to the PST. The rest will stay in
the mailbox.
